I love seeing the enthusiasm in this article. Honestly, I thought 13 was fantastic upon release and I still do. It would be sad if this ends up being where they set the finish line on touring / album work. But they definitely would be going out strong.

I thought Ozzy's performance on 13 was weak (old age/vocal chords showing through), but the songs were strong. Strong enough to make it work anyway. I hope they do something different, and blow everything out of the water. That would be the way to go out, imo. But, I highly doubt it. They have a formula that works, and they'll probably just rely on that.

If this has already been posted, well... so what, it needs to be posted again.
I've seen bit's and pieces of this concert, but never watched the entire thing, until last night. My God. How have I not seen this until now? Even with Tony being just slightly out of tune in some places, and a few missed notes, and even though Ozzy didn't have the lyrics quite nailed down for some of the songs from Paranoid, this is some of the best music ever played live. Period. No frills, no gimmicks, no BS. Ozzy even uses 2 microphones, which run his vocals to two different amps for an early stereo widening effect. This is where it all began. A slice of Metal history right before your eyes.

That should be required viewing for any fan of metal so they can have an appreciation for where it all began.
First full rock song I mastered on the guitar with my very first band was Into the Void.
Memories.

Cool. You should get a kick out of this then. The cam is stage left pointing to stage right, I'm on lead, bottom center. I'll apologize now for the clipping, and poor sound quality. We play really loud, and our bass players Zoom Cam/Recorder couldn't quite handle it.

Nice! Snowblind is hands down my fave BS tune.
(and ya, bass players and camcorders are a match made in hell)
